SILAC Proteomic Workflow for LC-MS/MS

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
SILAC labeling was performed by growing cells for at least five passages in lysine- and arginine-free SILAC medium (RPMI, Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% dialyzed fetal calf serum, 2 mM L-glutamine and 1% P/S. “Light” and “heavy” media were supplemented with natural lysine and arginine (0.1 mg/mL), and 13C-, 15N-labeled lysine and arginine (0.1 mg/mL), respectively.
General protein digestion for LC-MS/MS analysis was performed by dissolving protein (e.g. whole lysate or enriched proteins) in digestion buffer (8 M urea, 50 mM NH4HCO3, pH 8.0), followed by disulfide reduction with DTT (10 mM, 40 minutes, 50 ˚C), alkylation (iodoacetamide, 15 mM, 30 min, room temperature, protected from light) and quenching (DTT, 5mM, 10 minutes, room temperature). The proteome solution was diluted 4-fold with ammonium bicarbonate solution (50 mM, pH 8.0), CaCl2 added (1 mM) and digested with sequencing grade trypsin (∼1:100 enzyme/protein ratio; Promega) at 37 ˚C while rotating overnight. Peptide digestion reactions were stopped by acidification to pH 2-3 with 1% formic acid, and peptides were then desalted on ZipTip C18 tips (100 μL, Millipore), dried under vacuum, resuspended with LC-MS grade water (Sigma Aldrich), and then lyophilized. Lyophilized peptides were dissolved in LC-MS/MS Buffer A (H2O with 0.1% formic acid, LC-MS grade, Sigma Aldrich) for proteomic analysis.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
